So you mean comparing the scenario where the AQM runs on both sides of the bottleneck to one where it runs as an ingress shaper on one side only?

Yes. How much lower speed/rate would the CPE ingress (internet->CPE) AQM have to run at to have a reasonable low probability of traffic being delayed by that shaper (or dropped by the policer).

I realise this would be different depending on speed of the access, but some data points would be interesting.

For instance, some ISPs I've heard will have a policer and 2 seconds worth of burst, before they drop packets. Some others might have lower burst values. Some will have a pretty decent FIFO shaper. There are some different scenarios, how much lower speed do I need to run my AQM at in order to try to avoid this policer or shaper to affect my traffic? Gut feeling would be 10-20% should be enough, but I don't know.
